More from Nike SB
Celebrating skateboarding legend Sandy Bodecker, the Nike SB PS8 Skate Shoes were created to solve skate shoe problems and deliver the ultimate performance. Crafted with a Flyknit upper and leather overlays coated in a protective PU layer complete with a supportive cupsole construction. The innovative midsole features a unique foam compound, reducing rubber usage while enhancing responsiveness and board feel with its supportive internal nylon plate. Finished with a cushioned insole for added impact protection and a grippy rubber outsole for optimal traction.
Cupsole - Durable and shock-absorbing to provide the best impact protection against hard landings. Cupsoles generally last longer than a vulcanized sole but don't provide as much flexibility and board feel right out of the box.
Decreased Rubber in Outsole - Less rubber means less weight, and this outsole also happens to feature a skate specific tread pattern for more flexibility and traction.
Flyknit Cuff - Flyknit Cuff construction provides a featherweight, formfitting and virtually seamless upper. This unprecedented precision maximizes performance with the snug (and virtually unnoticed) fit of a sock.
Nike embarked on a four-year mission with teams of programmers, engineers and designers to create the technology needed to make the knit upper with static properties for structure and durability. Then the precise placement of support, flexibility and breathability—all in one layer—was refined.
